Gill Wilson |
Gill Wilson’s work draws on the fundamental geometry of the natural world. She has worked with plant fibre pulps for the last 30 years after an inspirational study tour to Japan. Since then she has visited and formed relationships with other papermakers in Europe, Canada, and the USA and most recently during a three-month study tour in India.
Her work is characterised by an innovative manipulation of the material – a malleable medium which can be liquid enough to be spayed yet dense enough to be cast. Her original training in Japan taught her to work with the essential simplicity of the medium with the qualities of aesthetic purity and ecological sustainability.
Gill’s passion for contemporary interior space informs her work and seeks to address the essential preoccupations of 21st century living. The language that she employs has always been of the simplest and most direct kind, faithful to what she feels is her own very particular form of art
